When the moderator has to say, "But do you have any specifics.." what, 3 times? Yeah, you are looking pretty bad. Ryan will start resorting to personal campaign trail stories to still appeal to undecided voters, but the fact remains, he doesn't seem to know what the specifics of his plan are and that is terrifying to me considering the election is in less than a month.

Yeah. Again, I don't know how the average person responds to this, but I'm a lot happier with Biden's answer than Ryan saying we need to send more Americans to what the two of them agreed is the most dangerous place in the world.

I do wonder if gender has anything do with that. I suppose that's part of it, but I think more of it is that Ryan's presented himself as an intellectual wonk. Palin... well, she didn't.

In 2008 there was all this crying that Palin was being attacked because she was a woman, just like that meanie Obama attacked Hillary for being a woman. So because of that criticism it is believed that Biden held back.
